The Nine Lives of a Cat

This is the story of a Rasputin-like cat who seems to have an escape for every near-death situation it encounters. Surviving hanging burning and falling off a roof what gets it in the end should be obvious. Written and illustrated by Charles Bennett this Victorian era childrens book was originally published in 1860 and is re-printed here to help preserve and introduce new generations to the work of a truly gifted cartoonist.
